  2. Microsoft Edge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Edge

    Microsoft Edge (or simply nicknamed Edge), based on the Chromium open-source project, also known as The New Microsoft Edge or New Edge, is a proprietary cross-platform web browser created by Microsoft, superseding Edge Legacy. [8] [9] [10] In Windows 11, Edge is the only browser available from Microsoft. First made available only for Android ...

  3. Hydrogen ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_ion

    A hydrogen atom is made up of a nucleus with charge +1, and a single electron. Therefore, the only positively charged ion possible has charge +1. It is noted H +. Depending on the isotope in question, the hydrogen cation has different names: Hydron: general name referring to the positive ion of any hydrogen isotope (H +)

  4. Chromium compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_compounds

    The Pourbaix diagram for chromium in pure water, perchloric acid, or sodium hydroxide [1] [2] Chromium compounds are compounds containing the element chromium (Cr). Chromium is a member of group 6 of the transition metals. The +3 and +6 states occur most commonly within chromium compounds, followed by +2; charges of +1, +4 and +5 for chromium ...

  5. Oxidation state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_state

    In chemistry, the oxidation state, or oxidation number, is the hypothetical charge of an atom if all of its bonds to other atoms were fully ionic. It describes the degree of oxidation (loss of electrons) of an atom in a chemical compound. Conceptually, the oxidation state may be positive, negative or zero.

  6. Reducing agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reducing_agent

    An agent's oxidation state describes its degree of loss of electrons, where the higher the oxidation state then the fewer electrons it has. So initially, prior to the reaction, a reducing agent is typically in one of its lower possible oxidation states; its oxidation state increases during the reaction while that of the oxidizer decreases.

  7. Galvanic cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_cell

    As this reaction continues, the half-cell with the metal A electrode develops a positively charged solution (because the metal A cations dissolve into it), while the other half-cell develops a negatively charged solution (because the metal B cations precipitate out of it, leaving behind the anions); unabated, this imbalance in charge would stop ...

  8. Passivation (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passivation_(chemistry)

    In physical chemistry and engineering, passivation is coating a material so that it becomes "passive", that is, less readily affected or corroded by the environment. . Passivation involves creation of an outer layer of shield material that is applied as a microcoating, created by chemical reaction with the base material, or allowed to build by spontaneous oxidation

  9. Chromic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromic_acid

    Chromic acid is an intermediate in chromium plating, and is also used in ceramic glazes, and colored glass. Because a solution of chromic acid in sulfuric acid (also known as a sulfochromic mixture or chromosulfuric acid) is a powerful oxidizing agent, it can be used to clean laboratory glassware, particularly of otherwise insoluble organic ...
